    18 Recipes to Eat With Tomato Soup

    18 Recipes to Eat With Tomato Soup

    Simple yet satisfying, tomato soup is one of the most classic comfort foods around. However, as the existence of the grilled cheese sandwich proves, tomato soup is always better when it's served alongside a contrasting dish or dipping vehicle. The key is to work with foods that will complement tomato soup's trademark acidic and slightly sweet notes. Lighter sides, such as green salads, can hold their own against tomato soup without compromising its flavor. Or, kick the indulgence factor up a notch and opt for heartier foods, such as mozzarella sticks, risotto, potatoes, or even meatloaf. Scroll through for 20 ideas of what to eat with tomato soup, including simple salads, twice-baked potatoes, and, of course, grilled cheese sandwiches.

Hearty winter stews and braises aside, summer is actually the perfect time to break out your slow cooker. It keeps your kitchen cool (no standing over a hot stove or heating up the kitchen with your oven). It's hands free so you can enjoy long, fun-filled days outside. And it does all the work of a smoker or grill without hours of tending to the coals, bringing barbecue classics to your table with next to no effort. These recipes might just give your slow cooker a permanent spot on your kitchen counter.
